Ain't it a bitch when your wife is the manager of a high end eatery and a booze salesman hands her a case of various $300.00 a bottle of wine to sample. I'm going to have a wicked hangover tomorrow and enjoy every minute of it. I'll be onto bottle #2 shortly

Boy this sucks...
I've got about $2.500.00 worth of free wine to polish off before Sunday. I guess I'll just have to suffer

Lets see............the last time I drank wine I was 15. After hanging out with the porcelain god I swore I would never touch it again if I could just live. I was doing ok until 26 and had some at a wedding, I think it was my wedding.
He punished me pretty bad and gave me a naked girl that threw up on me....it went down hill from there but kept my word after that. Good luck Chip. Doug

Dude, that's awesome! I know the wine guy at a big booze shop and he lets us try expensive wines and whiskies every now and then. Nothing like what you've been given though. WOW!
Remember to enjoy it at least, don't just quaff it down.

Damn, I hope you *like* really good wine. Otherwise send it to some of us who do, and we'll be happy to send you a couple of cases of beer.

My wife is a wine purveyor at Carlsbad Wine Merchants, and I understand the high end sampling thing too, only I'm not too much into wine, I appreciate it and I can most times tell if a wine is good or not. I definitely prefer the crazy beer samples she gets. There are some oh my god delicious micro brews and from around the world brews that you just don't see every day. And then there was the beer tasting on Fathers day. Yum
